Popis: Since nematic liquid crystals have found a wide use for solving a number of practical problems, the theoretical prediction of thermodynamic and transport properties of liquid crystal systems, as well as an explanation of the structure and dynamic characteristics on the basis of reasonable molecular models have become a point of great importance. The modern molecular- statistical theories, e.g. Maier-Saupe theory and its modifications, use rough approximations (mean field approximations for example) and therefore may lead to wrong conclusions.
